Method of Preparation
1. Preparing the Base
-
Grate the Potatoes:
-
After boiling and peeling the potatoes, coarsely grate them using a grater. Take a serving dish with a ring mold and arrange half of the grated potatoes in it as the first layer.
-
Sprinkle the potatoes with a little salt and ground black pepper for seasoning. Then, spread a layer of mayonnaise over the potatoes.
-
2. Adding the Tuna
-
Prepare the Tuna:
-
Open the can of tuna, drain the oil, and break the tuna into small pieces.
-
Evenly spread the tuna over the mayonnaise-covered potatoes, creating a flavorful fish layer.
-
3. Layering with Vegetables and Cheese
-
Green Onions:
-
Wash and finely chop the green onions. Spread them evenly over the tuna layer, then cover with another layer of mayonnaise.
-
-
Grated Cheese:
-
Grate the cheese coarsely and spread it over the green onions. Once again, apply a thin layer of mayonnaise.
-
-
Grated Carrots:
-
Coarsely grate the boiled carrots and spread them evenly over the cheese layer.
-
4. Adding the Eggs
-
Prepare the Eggs:
-
Peel the boiled eggs and separate the whites from the yolks. Grate the egg whites on a coarse grater and spread them over the carrot layer. Sprinkle with salt and ground black pepper, then cover with a layer of mayonnaise.
-
-
Grate the Yolks:
-
Mash the egg yolks well with a fork and spread them evenly on top of the salad as the final layer. This will give the salad a beautiful, golden finish.
-

Tips for Success
-

Chilling: If you prefer a chilled salad, you can refrigerate it for an hour before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together even more.
